Best Answer

The word 'disaster' comes from the the Middle French desastre, from Italian disastro. It is formed of the prefix "dis" (away, without) and the word "astro" (star).

It is related to the astrological idea that calamities occur because of the unfavourable position of a star in the heavens.
